NIXON 2012 Spring “Heritage” Collection

Rugged, raw and timeless, the Nixon spring “Heritage” Collection is a congregation of congratulatory adjectives. With warm tones and butter soft hand, American-made leather lends a natural Horween contrast to the high polish of stainless steel. These materials come together to create classic looks that push the past into the present. The line consists of five watches which includes the 51-30 Chrono Leather, Chronicle, Corporal, Private and Sentry Leather. Expect to see the “Heritage” Collection at select Nixon retailers in the coming weeks. Source: FRESHNGOOD.COM

BOYISH GOOD LOOKS WITHOUT THE BOY, NIXON WELCOMES THE RAIDER

A clean, classic analog design dressed up. Subtly hidden crystal inlays in the sidewall add to its charmingly simple good looks. 

New for 2012, Nixon welcomes The Raider. Inspired by the attraction of opposites. Think combat boots and lipstick, diamonds and denim. The Raider is professional yet playful. Not asking for permission nor apologizing after, The Raider just does its own damn thing. With an ultra smooth silicone band and icy crystals, the status is most certainly not quo.
